MIT List Visual Arts Center

As MIT’s contemporary art museum, the List Center collects, commissions and exhibits artist led projects that engage MIT and the global art community.

As the contemporary art museum at MIT, the List Visual Arts Center presents six to nine gallery exhibitions, including a series of work by emerging artists known as List Projects, as well as a broad range of educational programs, events, and publications. The List maintains and adds to MIT’s permanent collection; commissions new works through MIT’s Percent-for-Art program, a collection of site-specific artworks throughout the campus; and manages the Student Loan Art Program, lending over 600 art works yearly to MIT undergrads and grad students. Programs are free and open to the general public.
